Good stuff
Perfect for classroom use! Important to have the control strips as a standard for comparison.

Read the Labels to ensure a proper experience
Really great little experiment for my classroom. Just be sure to read the packages, I didn't realize I had given out some of the control papers when I meant to give out the PTC test lol.

Exactly what we needed
I used this with a high school math class. They loved performing the experiment and analyzing data to determine if being able to taste the PTC was related to gender, hair color, or ability to smell. The strips performed exactly as expected. We did cut them in half to have more, but that was still large enough to tell if you could taste it.

Fun with my coworkers
Love testing my coworkers and so far I have only found 1 non-taster.

Quick PTC test
Used these with my fifth graders as we studied inherited traits. I like that the product has a "control" paper as well as the PTC paper.

Great product!
These served exactly the purpose we needed! We were just showing your people have different genres in our Nursing class.

It's a gimmick. Everyone could taste it.

Worked flawlessly. I did observe a 25/50/25 (nontaster/taster/supertaster) ratio amongst my coworkers. Sadly, I'm part of the non-taster group so I can't vouch personally for the taste. The control papers are a nice touch for the experiment. 100 strips are more than enough.
